Ways to find Agents and Wholesalers

[Daniel Vargas]

Happy Thursday BP Community,
I've been really struggling finding agents and wholesalers who can bring me actually good deals in the South Florida area. Any advice on places to look or ways to network and find these people? Thank you in advance

Daniel,

Are you a member of a local real estate investing club? If not join and get active. Also make sure everyone you interact with knows you buy houses and what type of property you are looking for. I pay a 1,000 finders fee to anyone who brings me an unlisted property that I buy. After you pay a few people you will have a team looking for properties for you that you only have to pay for results. 

Make sure you stay educated on your market, what is selling for how much with what features. How much rent is going for and where is there demand. You need to have a pretty good idea of the value of properties you look at to be successful. 

Call real estate agents and tell them what you are looking for. For me I specialize in distressed properties so I get deals that are listed that no one is making offers on because of the property condition. My best deals however, are normally those that are not listed. Good luck.
